That reaction is basically why I made this one. The quote reads \"May your Coffee be stronger than your TODDLER\" and every word is doing something different visually. \"Coffee\" is in a big chunky dark brown satin script with those swooping curls you cant really fake in a font. \"May your\" and \"than your\" are in a sage green cursive, lighter and loopy, those two lines framing the middle. \"be stronger\" sits between them in a coral pink cursive, same weight but warmer, almost salmon. Then the big word at the bottom hits in large blocky pink block caps. A little takeaway cup sits top right, peach cream body with a dark brown lid and a pink heart stitched onto it. Two coffee beans tuck in bottom right, brown and detailed. Its alot of elements but they sit together really well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIve tested this across a bunch of fabrics and the one that really surprised me was linen. The satin columns on the \"Coffee\" lettering come up beautifully against a natural linen weave, way more texture contrast than on plain cotton. Cutaway stabiliser is what you need here, dont even try tear-away on anything with stretch. The tatami fill on those wide satin letters needs a firm hooped base or you'll get pull in the centre. Five sizes in the files, and the 3.5 inch fits a small coin purse front without crowding, while the 7.5 inch is big enough to centre on a fleece blanket or a canvas shopping bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePop the 5 inch version on a kitchen towel in cream terry and the contrast between the rough towel weave and those directional satin stitches on the cup is genuinely gorgeous. The underlay work on this one is tight, density sits at 619 stitches per square centimetre on the heavier elements, so colour bleed between the brown and the pink is not an issue even on lighter fabrics. Stitch count goes from about 12,500 at the smallest size up to 26,000 at the largest, so plan your bobbin situation accordingly for the bigger hoopings. Digitised with pro digitising tools, not a quick auto-convert job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a topping layer on fleece or towelling so those green cursive lines stay crisp and dont sink into the pile. Iron-on tearaway works fine on denim, which is another great home for this, think a canvas tote for the nursery run or a denim apron. Add it to a zipped pouch, a baby bag panel, or a mug rug and you've basically got a gift any tired parent is gonna love. Pair the sage green thread with a warmer cream base fabric if you want the whole thing to feel a bit more vintage kitchen rather than bright nursery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMessage me if the trims run long on your setup.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46432293388438,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/FunnyCoffeeLoverEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1782377727","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/funny-coffee-lover","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
